The experience at Palais Garnier was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we entered, the grandeur of the architecture, the ornate ceilings, and the iconic grand staircase left us in awe. Every corner of the opera house reflects history, elegance, and artistic brilliance. The self-guided tour was well organized and allowed us to explore at our own pace, appreciating the intricate details and rich stories behind the space. Booking through Headout was seamless and hassle-free, with clear instructions and easy access. A truly enriching cultural experience that beautifully captures the soul of Paris.

I absolutely loved my self-guided tour of the Palais Garnier. The building is truly breathtaking — from the grand staircase to the beautiful auditorium and the elegant hallways. The atmosphere was calm, and it was very easy to explore everything at my own pace. The audio guide was helpful and made the experience even more interesting. Overall, it was a memorable visit and definitely worth it!

I booked for Niki de Saint Phalle ( magnificent ) and also for the TRANSPARENCE exhibition. The 2 visits were charged. I was refused entry to the TRANSPARENCE exhibition because I was a single adult. Poorly explained on the site, perhaps a misunderstanding on my part... So I'm asking for a refund of the 13 euros for the exhibition I was refused entry to.

It's a shame we couldn't see the auditorium because it was closed for an audition without warning visitors. This room is still the most beautiful to visit.
